- oil such as a lubricant, or the like
- the number 1 and 5 of Wsa1-5 (SEP1941 standard) indicating long-wavelength waviness may indicate a lower limit and an upper limit of a cut-off value, respectively.
- “1” is a roughness cut-off value ( ⁇ c) which removes a roughness element having a wavelength of 1 mm or less in a form profile
- “5” is a coarse form cut-off value ( ⁇ f) which removes a coarse form of 5 mm or greater in a form profile.
- a method of manufacturing a hot-dip galvanized steel sheet having excellent press formability and image clarity after painting according to an aspect of the present disclosure may include manufacturing a hot-dip galvanized steel sheet by hot-dip zinc coating a matrix steel sheet, and charging the hot-dip galvanized steel sheet in a skin-pass mill and skin-pass-rolling the hot-dip galvanized steel sheet preferably.

- the skin-pass-rolling process may be an important process for achieving an ultimate purpose of the present disclosure.
- a hot-dip galvanized steel sheet having improved press formability and image clarity after painting may be finally manufactured.
- a roll obtained by grinding peak portions of fine ruggednesses of an electrical discharge texturing roll during the skin-pass-rolling may be used.
- a super finishing roll in which peak portions of the fine ruggednesses are ground may be used.
- a size of a peak and a size of a valley of fine ruggednesses may be similar to each other, or a height of a peak may be greater, and thus, roughness skewness may have a positive (+) value.
- roughness skewness of fine ruggednesses of indentation reflected on a surface of the hot-dip galvanized steel sheet may have a negative ( ⁇ ) value.
- V2 (lubricant filled profile valley area) value representing a retentation of lubricant of a surface of the hot-dip galvanized steel sheet, a lubricant filled profile valley area in which lubricant may remain, may decrease.
- roughness skewness (Rsk) of the roll may have a negative ( ⁇ ) value
- roughness skewness (Rsk) of fine ruggednesses of indentation reflected on a surface of the steel sheet may have a positive (+) value, or may have a negative ( ⁇ ) value higher than the roughness skewness value of the skin pass roll (which indicates that, when roughness skewness of the skin pass roll is ⁇ 0.3, roughness skewness of the steel sheet may be ⁇ 0.2 or ⁇ 0.1, for example).
- the roll according to an embodiment of the present disclosure may have roughness skewness (Rsk) of ⁇ 0.2 or less, average roughness (Ra) of 2 ⁇ m or less (excluding 0), and the number of peaks (RPc) in each unit length of 140 count/cm or higher preferably.
- a hot-dip galvanized steel sheet having roughness skewness (Rsk) of ⁇ 0.33 or higher and a lubricant filled profile valley area (V2) of 350 nm or greater may be obtained.
- Rsk roughness skewness
- V2 lubricant filled profile valley area
- Wsa1-5 surface long-wavelength waviness
- RPc number of peaks
- an indentation area may increase such that long wavelength waves (waviness) such as a spangle grain boundary and waves of a coating layer which affect image clarity after painting may be greatly removed. That is because, the lower the average roughness of the roll according to an example embodiment of the present disclosure may be, RPc of the roll and the hot-dip galvanized steel sheet may more rapidly increase such that a spangle grain boundary, waves, and the like, of a coating layer may be effectively removed. Accordingly, long wavelength waves, and the like, may not be reappeared after processing, and image clarity after painting may thus improve.
- a hot-dip galvanized steel sheet according to the present disclosure may include a matrix steel sheet and a hot-dip galvanized layer formed on the matrix steel sheet, and may have roughness skewness (Rsk) of ⁇ 0.33 or higher, and a lubricant filled profile valley area (V2) of 350 nm or greater preferably.

- a repetitive friction coefficient may proportionally decrease as average roughness (Ra) of the roll decreases. That is because, as roughness of the roll decreases, roughness skewness (Rsk) of the hot-dip galvanized steel sheet changes from a negative ( ⁇ ) value to a positive (+) value, and a V2 value affecting the lubricating action during press-forming proportionally increases.
- a cold-rolled steel sheet having an element composition of 0.002% of C, 0.003% of Si, 0.08% of Mn, 0.028% of Al, 0.0114% of P, and 0.0052% of S (weight %) was prepared, and a hot-dip zinc coating process was performed on the cold-rolled steel sheet for a coating amount of one surface of the cold-rolled steel sheet to be 60 g/m 2 , thereby obtaining a hot-dip galvanized steel sheet.

- the roughness value and the waviness value of fine ruggednesses of a surface of the hot-dip galvanized steel sheet skin-pass-rolled as above were measured in accordance with the SEP1941 standard using a contact-type roughness tester (of HOSAKAWA). Also, form factors such as roughness skewness (Rsk), V2, and the like, were measured using a surface roughness tester (of Veeco, NT8000).
- a sample of the steel sheet was cut in a size of 30 ⁇ 30 mm, the cut-out sample was degreased and dried, a basis weight thereof was obtained, and the sample was submerged in lubricant (P-340N). Thereafter, 15 samples were compiled and were pressed under 35 tons for 10 minutes in a pressing machine, lubricant other than in concave portions was drained, a weight was measured by performing a basis weight process again, and the weight was divided by an examination area, thereby obtaining the retentation of oil.
- the galling properties were examined based on a repetitive friction coefficient and the number of repetitive frictions, at which a coating layer separates, during a repetitive friction test.
- the repetitive friction coefficient was represented as a friction coefficient value obtained after placing a surface of the hot-dip galvanized steel sheet having a length of 250 mm on a tip of a size of 25 ⁇ 35 mm under a weight of 6.1 MPa at a speed of 120 mm per second using a planar surface repetitive friction coefficient tester, which was performed 15 times.
- a diameter of a planar portion of a cup, strained to be planar, was controlled to be 100 mm at least, and a strain rate was adjusted by a processing height.
- TCT is a TOPOCHROM texturing roll
- EDT is an electrical discharge texturing roll
- SF is a roll of which roughness skewness was controlled by grinding peak portions.
- long-wavelength waviness (Wsa1-5) after 5%-cupping process of the hot-dip galvanized steel sheet was 0.35 ⁇ m or less, and long-wavelength waves such as orange peel did not occur with the naked eye, and thus, image clarity after painting was excellent.
